TOUGH: A note left on the kiosk of Wendy's at Gracemere Shoppingworld reveals a rental dispute.Contributed

A spokesman for McConaghy Group, the company that owns Gracemere Shoppingworld, told The Morning Bulletin the owner of Wendy's was evicted shortly after they placed their business into "voluntary administration".

"McConaghy Group would have preferred them to remain in the centre but due to their circumstances this was not possible," the spokesman said.

"McConaghy Group maintains an open relationship with all the tenants and assists where possible to ensure their continuity in the group's centres."
